One of my former neighbors used to have a rottweiler, Bobs, and since he didn’t get alot of attention, I used to go over there to pet him, and he used to *lean* into me, as if he was soooo grateful for the interaction and attention… I always wished I could do more for him, but they eventually found him a better home where he got more attention.

Super Squee!! I love me some Rat Terriers. Look like they should be High Action dogs but sleep all day, usually in your clean laundry. To me it looks he is trying to teach his rottie buddy the fine art of napping. “Put your head down like that, now close your eyes, now ignore everything but the sound of the treat jar opening.”

Oh, they know how to use those eyebrow dots to their best expressive advantage, too. There’s nothing more concerned-looking than a BIG dog looking at you as if to say, “Are you really going to eat all of that sandwich? You’ve been wanting to lose weight, you know…”

Our Rocky dog does this, when I’m sitting on the couch (the couch has ends that recline). He’ll come present his head for petting, and then turn around as if to say, “Okay, scratch my butt now,” and I oblige him by digging my feet into his ‘tocks. (Big hairy dog, sheds a lot, thick fur on ‘tocks)

oh geez Noelegy, you nailed it… Miss Schnozz tried just yesterday to convince me that, yes, as a matter of fact, dogs do eat egg rolls, and rather enjoy them, really, and I don’t need two of them, and can’t I just share some? “Remember your teachers always told you to share” she says… oy….
